Relationship: Worked together on matter
Gabe and I worked together as law clerks in U.S. District Court. Gabe gained significant litigation experience through that experience to go along with his prior appellate experience clerking in the Washington State Supreme Court. Gabe is intellectually curious about the law and justice and I have no doubt that he is now putting those talents to use for his clients' benefit. I endorse him for any litigation or appellate matter without reservation.
